Who knew? DISCLAIMER!!!!!!!! OK so now I know the D@%*ED place is OFF LIMITS !! I won't take the detector back there!!!
Yes, now where was I? Ok, we go to Jekyll Island Ga. for a golf tournament and I have this BRAND NEW detector. let me repeat myself, there are miles of wonderful beach there and I have this brand new detector... So my first afternoon I decide to take the Excal for a leisurely stroll and not three minutes after I get it turned on, threshold set and earphones on my head I dig a pull tab. Wife is helping and onlookers saying 'watch, he'll probably find a ring". Well, one step later minus the onlookers I do just that! A 925 with what looks like Motherofpearl? The ocean was nearly lifeless in the wave dept. and it was slack tide. Next day in the pm I go out again but only dig the fishing weight, a tent pin and some bottle caps. Not too hepped on keeping those for pics ya see so I only snapped one. Yesterday a nice couple on the beach informed me that I was out of bounds at which time I folded it up and put the machine away. Not being desirous of any kind of constabularial? confrontation in which I might have an $1100 detector confiscated.
Any road here's a pic or two of the nut. I likes my Excal1000 but it is a LOAD!
